Last change to squad names:

Because we value having skins for these events, we have been in discussion with skinners. We would like the Ju 88 squads to be comprised of III/KG 54 who were based in southern italy during Corkscrew. That would be 8./KG 54 and 9./KG 54.

This should end the Axis naming saga. <S>

When you guys are done picking the squad names, could you do a post here that lists them in one post?  Then I'll put them into the writeup.

One of the joys of this stuff is always being able to learn more history.  Turns out the 7.JG53 109s had some art on a number of their G6s.  With that in mind, I tried to mimic it a bit without just using one of the real versions.

So this is my 7.JG53 109G6.  I wanted tail end charlie of 6 so white 6 for me.  Added some cartoon art in the same spot as the real guys did.  So I think my scoreboard is fairly in the spirit of the event.  Oberfeldwebel Von Cork's kite.  Can we fly now? :)

Brooke and Scenario CM's,

I want to applaud you on your work on this scenario. I think you guys, especially Brooke, have handled this public forum very well. You remained democratic, which is very much appreciated, and you accepted ideas, thoughts, and criticisms very honorably. I send a very sincere thank you.  :salute

If I get time to create a Ju88 template I can.  I don't have an 88 done at this point.

Finally got a copy of Jochen Prein's second volume on JG 53 that covers the time frame of the scenario.  Naturally there is a photo of the StaffelKapitan of 7.JG53 in it, and he's sitting in white 1.   So it had to be.  The art is obvious :)

Hope you don't mind Vudu :)
